Listen to poem:

What Is Love?

What is love?

love is osmosis
something absorbed

it creeps up on you
right through your pores

it cant be avoided
unless there is no contact

it generates heat... and a yearning for contract

Love has moved mountains
love has dug depths

Love can pull you into a emotional wreck

A spiral up... a spiral down
the elevator underground

Love knows no bounds
it knows no time
it continues on
without reason or rhyme

it can take you to the depths of your very soul
and cradle you in comfort, be your end goal

For Stephen Chef4u1000 ... what is love (C) Artimus  Susan Manley 12/9/2009


How do you turn it off? that was your question I know.. I haven't a clue... I am just a Bard.
